I am a huge fan of these segregated bike lanes, but dollars? really?
You love to see it
What’s a dollar
Fairview in Detroit?
Relax about the dollars thing everyone FFS.. y knew what OP meant.
If you built it, they will come.
Paid for with all the fines you got driving in the bus lane
Between BusConnects, DART+, Metrolink and the Greater Dublin Area Cycle Network, we might actually have the start of a liveable city.
I’ve only used it a few times and it was always so busy! People going to/coming home from work, kids going to GAA, people out for a quiet cycle. It was so lovely to see.
What happened
There’s like 10 guys on the road taking 80% of the space and, 20 on bikes, taking up 20% of the space. This is how society should work. Best thing they ever did was make Dundrum one way and add a cycle lane. I love cycling to the shops with my kids.
Yeah it’s a great piece of kit!! Fair play to DCC.
I’m just glad you said dollars in the title, or this could have descended into a positive chat!!
Woah what is this?
Not from Dublin.
Is that a dedicated cycle path? Amsterdam style?
You’ll be posting pictures of unicorns next! Wow! Amazing, they do get used!
Great to see.
I was so annoyed when they were putting this in it felt like it was taking forever but delighted with it now. Much more comfortable and safe cycle.
If every one of those bikes was another car in queue before you at the lights.
Yeah it’s such a nice part of my route, I scooter it several days a week. Took them some time to do this construction, but it was totally worth it.
Remember when this opened and the council were accused of hiring actors to make the cycle lane look busy?
Dollary doos?! TOBIAS!
It’s not just the space for bikes that makes the difference, it’s the safety with a proper physical separation. Less of these stupid painted line cycle lanes.
Jaysus, a genuine happy post. I thought this was gonna be some whinge/clickbait.
Ah yeah, totally agree its great to see it get use! =D Twas a nightmare living local during construction but happy its finished and well used!
All those cars not on the road. How excellent.
Very cool
It was a fierce long time being built
I cycled beside it for two or three years but its well worth it now.
Quality job.
What do people make of the bike lanes installed on East Wall Road that went in around the same time, two lanes on one side of road with lots of business exits running onto it. Maybe they had no choice though because the bike lane follows up to seamus quirke road?
Thanks for this!! I went to school in Joey’s many moons ago, good memories
Post the same video on Facebook and you get all the same moaners… I’ve literally seen pictures of fairview in the 80s with no traffic and they’re blaming the cycle lanes. Nothing to do with the massive increase in cars and car sizes.
One of the best infrastructure projects of the last decade.
But now no combine harvesters can get through fairview. Think of the farmers lol.
Eyes plucked out and post down voted for Dollars
Oh man, that’s a great lane. Hope to see more of that. We’re forced into the road far too often. It’s fine for me, but it prevents younger ones from being able to cycle earlier.
Fun fact: it cost €7.4m per km for these works which includes upgrades to bus network, fairview park and public realm along the route.
Love to see it.. but wasn’t this the one everyone was whinging about a few years ago when it was announced🤣
Tell me you’re a Yank without telling me you’re a Yank. We use Euro’s here.
Where exactly does the new lane start? I would love to cycle there and get some footage of it!
Tax euros my friend
I used this and feels very safe used to scared on the earlier setup
I used cycle that route in and out every day, it used be an intense cycle.
